A rocket, which is in deep space and initially at rest relative to an inertial reference frame, has a mass of 50.2 × 105 kg, of

which 12.5 × 105 kg is fuel. The rocket engine is then fired for 450 s, during which fuel is consumed at the rate of 370 kg/s. The speed of the exhaust products relative to the rocket is 4.90 km/s. (a) What is the rocket's thrust? After the 450 s firing, what are (b) the mass and (c) the speed of the rocket?

Answer:

165.2762 m/sec

Explanation:

The initial mass of the rocket and the fuel

M₀ = 5.02e6 kg

The initial mass of the fuel

Mf₀ = 1.25e6 kg

The rate of fuel consumption

dm/dt = 370 kg/sec

The duration of the rocket burn

Δt = 450 sec

The rocket exhaust speed

Ve = 4900 m/sec

The thrust, T

T = Ve (dm/dt) = 1813000 kg m/sec²

The mass of the expended propellant, ΔM

ΔM = Δt (dm/dt) = 166500 kg

The rocket's mass after the burn

M₁ = M₀ − ΔM = 4853500 kg

The speed of the rocket after the burn

Δv = Ve ln(M₀/M₁) = 165.2762 m/sec

Change in velocity from 2 to -3
Alecsey [184]

Velocity units =m/s

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity

a =timechange in velocity

Therefore SI units of acceleration is ms−1/s=s2m

Water evaporates from the surface of the land and oceans, rises and cools, condenses into rain or snow, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. The water falling on land collects in rivers and lakes, soil, and porous layers of rock, and much of it flows back into the oceans. The cycling of water in and out of the atmosphere is a significant aspect of the weather patterns on Earth. so that will be probs the best i can do
